“Sandra was amazing with Bruno! She took the time to work with him before their walk, gave me a detailed update, and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. I really appreciate how patient, caring, and communicative she is. Highly recommend!”
About: I've loved animals my whole life and have been around cats in one way or another for most of my life. I grew up with multiple cats and I've been taking care of my cat Cole since adopting her in 2018 as a kitten. I've been volunteering at a cat shelter for several years as a socializer and love visiting as many cats as I can when I'm there (I always stay longer than my shift). I love them dearly, always want what's best for them, and would treat your cat with the same care concern I'd treat for my own. I'd be happy to provide drop-in visits for feedings/etc or to provide your cat with some play/social time! I love meeting new cats and taking in their unique quirks! While I've had a lot more exposure to felines, I've spent time and cared for several dogs as well and would gladly care for yours while you are away. I've had a lot of good experiences with them - I’m good pals with my landlady's pitbull and my dad’s chocolate lab! I’ll give your dog lots of attention and be mindful of their personality, especially during walks. I’ve had some anxious ones that can get a bit testy when they see other dogs during walks and I’ve handled them well. I'm between jobs at the moment, so I am fairly flexible in terms of availability with some notice. Sunday is my day for volunteering, though I can swap my shift if need be to provide your pet with the care it needs. I'm happy to arrange for shorter/longer visits on single/recurring basis. Can assist with feedings, playtime or just hang out and provide them a loving lap! Also happy to provide photo/video updates of your fur babies to help put your mind(s) at ease!
About: Former dog owner of 18 years, with previous experience caring for multiple sized breeds in home and for walks since I was young. Founder and owner of Berry&Co Treatery. I use to make and sell healthy dog treats when I lived in NM for 2 years. ❤️Quality over quantity, your dog will always be my priority. I tend to accept one family's pets at a time.

They are family here❤️ Usually open availability, if there are any scheduling issues I will be sure to let you know in advance and try to work something out. Please do not hesitate to ask! When first meeting your pet I take care to respect their boundaries and build trust with them. You will receive text and photo updates during the visit or walk always!

“Catherine followed my pet caring instructions to a tee. She had excellent communication and listened carefully to me regarding my pet's needs. Very reliable. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Diana has been stopping by to walk and take care of our high energy husky several days a week while we were at work over the past few months. She has been such a wonderful help! She’s responsible, responsive, and so kind! Hopper loves her visits, and we got great pics of their adventures. Hopper will miss her while I’m home for the summer, but we can’t wait to book her again at the start of the school year! They have also helped with our cats when we travel. We trust them with all our pets! We absolutely recommend Diana and Andrew and thank them for their help!”
“Emily took great care of our dog while we were away!! The communication and care was amazing! Given that the doggy was not feeling his best, she helped him out and updated us how he was doing! And was creative when we hit a snag with the access to our house! Would recommend her care!”

“Sherrie was reliable and loving- an ideal combination! She went the extra mile (literally!) walking our dog Millie to make sure Millie was thoroughly exercised. She checked Millie's water bowls without us asking. Sherrie also communicated with us clearly, promptly, and warmly. We will definitely try and hire her again when Millie needs some extra attention. Thank you, Sherrie!!”

“Leah was very pleasant, reliable, and professional. She was able to accommodate our travel schedule and took good care of our little pooch. We were worried about going away for our weekend trip, but I felt very confident that our dog, Gabi, was in good hands. She updated us with photos and a report card of Gabi. I would definitely use Leah’s services again and highly recommend her!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Hackensack
Sophia was absolutely amazing with Bishop! From the very beginning, she was kind, reliable, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bishop was happy, safe, and well cared for. It was obvious he was in great hands and enjoyed his time with her. We are so grateful for the wonderful care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sophia to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker or pet sitter. Thank you, Sophia, for taking such great care of Bishop!
I couldn't have asked for a better first experience! I needed help on very short notice with my newly adopted dog, and she was amazing. She was so patient and understanding with him during this big transition. Her communication was excellent from start to finish, and the updates and photos gave me so much peace of mind while I was at work. It's clear that she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again.

I can't say enough about Elizabeth! She was wonderful! I was so worried about finding a dog walker, and she eased my fear. She's definitely confident when it comes to larger breed dogs, the size and look of my dog did not faze her! The initial meet and greet went well! And I think it helped with the relationship between her and my dog.. I'm so relieved that we have someone that we can count on! And someone that my dog likes, and it comfortable to go on walks with! Thanks Elizabeth!! See you next time! 😉
Bryndon is great! Our dog usually barks at everyone that comes in the house. She did not bark at all with Bryndon. She met him at the door and after a few sniffs, sat down so he could pet her! Bryndon was very engaged in learning about Miracle's personality and quirks. He was engaged with her and at the same time maintained full control of her (she can pull at times). Bryndon was also very attentive to everything we shared with him about Miracle and we are very confident that Miracle will be in great hands on her walks with Bryndon.
We’ve had such a great experience with our dog walker, Xavier! He’s been walking our two dogs, Koda and Miso, and I honestly couldn’t ask for better care. Both dogs have their own personalities, and he handles each of them so well—making sure they get the right amount of exercise, attention, and love. I always feel at ease knowing Koda and Miso are in good hands. Xavier is reliable, communicative, and clearly cares about the dogs he works with. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it shows in how happy and relaxed my pups are after every walk. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring!
Jing was wonderful with Bailey. He was a little nervous today because it’s only a few days in our new apt, so he don’t finish his breakfast. Jing sat with him and hand fed him a couple morsels, helping him to feel comfortable and then he finished the rest on his own. I highly recommend Jing and will definitely use her again!

The average cost for Dog Walking in South Hackensack on Rover is $21.4 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your South Hackensack. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in South Hackensack.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Hackensack. On Rover:
- 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
